A Lioness' Story 🕯

Jamila Shafi'i, a 66-year-old mother and grandmother from Arak in Iran.
According to witnesses, Jamila threw herself in front of the Islamic Republic regime agents to protect the young people from their bullets. Khamenei's ruthless agents shot her body with bullets.

Like a lioness protecting her cubs,
Jamila's action is one of true love...
She will always be remembered 💖

We tend to look at Life like a jigsaw puzzle

When you tip the box out

And see every piece at once

It feels overwhelming

So many details

So many shapes

Some parts are hard to recognise

And you wonder where to even begin

But no one builds a jigsaw by staring at the whole picture

You start small

The house

The fence

One corner

One piece that fits

And here's the freedom we often forget...

You don't have to build the borders first if that feels too hard

You don't have to follow other people's rules for how progress should look

You just need to start where you can

And before you know it...

You look back and realise...

You've built far more than you thought possible

God rarely asks us to see the whole picture

He asks us to take the next faithful step

Jesus said...

"Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof"

Meaning...



Part 1 / 2

Part 2 continues...


Don't be consumed by anxiety about the future

As each day brings its own challenges

And we should trust God

To provide for daily needs

Focusing on living faithfully in the present

Rather than fretting over potential future troubles

It's a call to live one day at a time

Addressing current needs with faith

Not a command to avoid all planning

The phrase...

"tomorrow will worry about itself"

Emphasizes that God is sovereign

And will handle future concerns as they arise

One day

One decision

One act of obedience


Don't rush the process

Don't compare your puzzle to someone else's

Keep placing the next piece in trust

The picture is coming together

Whether you can see it yet or not



HAVE A BLESSED DAY

Goodmorning! May this prayer bless you in the name of Christ Jesus 🕯 🙏🏽 🕊

People get really worked up about the 144,000 in Book of Revelation

Like there’s a heavenly clipboard

Like heaven has a fire code

Like Peter is standing at the gate saying...

“ Sorry... We hit capacity yesterday "

That is not what is happening here

Revelation is not written like a spreadsheet

It’s written like a thunderstorm

It uses symbols, pictures, numbers, patterns, echoes, and repetition

To say things that plain language just can’t carry without breaking

And if we read it like a math problem

We are going to miss the point so hard

It will take several comment sections to recover

In ~ Revelation 7...

John hears a number

One hundred forty-four thousand. Twelve thousand from each of the twelve tribes of Israel

Very organized

Very intentional

“ God is not confused and no one slipped through the cracks "

And then immediately after that.......



Part 1 of 3

Part 2 / 3 continues...


John looks and sees a crowd so large no one can count them

From every nation, tribe, people, and language

Which should already be our first clue that Revelation is doing its classic move again

Hear the symbol

See the reality

Same people

Two perspectives

The 144,000 are described as sealed

That matters

In Scripture...

Sealing is about ownership and protection

Not evacuation

This is not a VIP pass out of suffering

It’s a mark that says...

“ You are Mine "

Right in the middle of it

Then in ~ Revelation 14...

They show up again

Still with the Lamb

Still marked as His

Still faithful

Still standing

This is victory imagery

Not enrollment paperwork

Now let’s talk numbers...

Because Revelation loves numbers the way Jerseys love mischief

Twelve shows up everywhere

Twelve tribes

Twelve apostles

Twelve gates

Twelve foundations

Twelve is the number of God’s covenant people

Always has been

So when you see twelve times twelve times one thousand

~ Revelation is not asking you to grab a calculator

It’s saying fullness times fullness times a big biblical way of saying

“ complete ”

In Scripture...

A thousand is rarely about precision

God owns the cattle on a thousand hills

Not hill number 1001 where He suddenly runs out

A day is like a thousand years to the Lord

Not literally 365,000 hours

The number is doing theology

Not math

Which means the 144,000

Are not God’s final draft with limited seating

They are a symbolic picture of God’s people

Fully known

Fully accounted for

Fully sealed

No one forgotten

No one miscounted

No one missing

Because heaven lost the spreadsheet...

Now, people often notice something else in

~ Revelation 7...

One tribe is missing from the list

And you’ll sometimes hear the explanation that they were kicked out for idol worship...

That idea isn’t random

In the Old Testament...

The tribe of Dan becomes closely associated with idolatry

In Judges...

Dan sets up its own carved image and priesthood

Later...

When Israel splits into northern and southern kingdoms...

One of the golden calves is placed in Dan

So Dan becomes a symbolic hotspot for compromised worship

“ Yes... We worship God… But also this "

Because of that history...

Some early Jewish and Christian writers believed Dan’s absence in
~ Revelation was intentional

A warning sign

A theological signal flare

Not because God permanently deletes tribes

But because ~ Revelation is relentlessly serious about who you worship

And here’s where it really matters that we don’t turn symbolism into a weapon

Because the same Jesus who inspired ~ Revelation...

Is the one who told His disciples to forgive seventy times seven

And...

He very clearly did not mean...

" Once you hit 490, congratulations, you’re out of mercy and I’m out of patience "

That number was doing theology too

It meant forgiveness without a calculator

Forgiveness that doesn’t keep a tally

Forgiveness that refuses to say...

“ That was the last straw "

Which makes it very hard to argue that ~ Revelation is secretly about God running out of grace

If you want proof...

Look at the thief on the cross...

One minute he’s mocking Jesus

Literally joining in

No lifetime of good behavior

No theological resume

No chance to clean things up

Then something shifts...

He asks Jesus to remember him

And Jesus says...

“ Today you will be with Me in paradise "

No probation period

No trial membership

No waiting list

That guy probably opened his eyes in paradise thinking...

“ I am…genuinely unsure how I got here, but I am not asking questions "

That is the heart behind
~ Revelation too

~ Revelation draws a sharp line between true worship and false worship

Between being sealed by God

And marked by allegiance to something else

Between the Lamb

And every counterfeit savior offering a cheaper shinier deal

But it is not trying to shrink God’s mercy

It is trying to sharpen our loyalty
